1 Can a solid be superfluid? University of Virginia, August 31, 2007 Moses Chan - Penn State
2 Outline Introduction Torsional oscillator measurements. Specific heat measurements
3 Superfluidity in liquid 4 He Solid Superfluid helium film can flow up a wall Normal Liquid (He I) Superfluid (He II) Superfluid Fountain T λ =2.176K
4 Lindemann Parameter the ratio of the root mean square of the displacement of atoms to the interatomic distance (d a ) total energy zero-point energy γ L = < u d a 2 > = 0.26 Zero-point Energy Inter-atomic potential A classical solid will melt if the Lindemann s parameter exceeds the critical value of ~0.1. X-ray measurement of the Debye-Waller factor of solid helium at ~0.7K and near melting curve shows this ratio to be (Burns and Issacs, Phys. Rev. B 55, 5767(1997))
5 Theoretical consensus in 1970s: Superfluidity in solid is not impossible! - If solid 4 He can be described by a Jastraw-type wavefunction that is commonly used to describe liquid helium then crystalline order (with finite fraction of vacancies) and BEC can coexist. G.V. Chester, Lectures in Theoretical Physics Vol XI-B(1969); Phys. Rev. A 2, 256 (1970) J. Sarfatt, Phys. Lett. 30A, 300 (1969) L. Reatto, Phys. Rev. 183, 334 (1969) - Andreev and Liftshitz assume the specific scenario of zeropoint vacancies and other defects ( e.g. interstitial atoms) undergoing BEC and exhibit superfluidity. Andreev & Liftshitz, Zh.Eksp.Teor.Fiz. 56, 205 (1969).
6 The ideal method of detection of superfluidity is to subject solid to dc or ac rotation and look for evidence of nonclassical rotational inertia A. J. Leggett, Can a solid be superfluid? PRL 25, 1543 (1970) Quantum exchange of particles arranged in an annulus under rotation leads to a measured moment of inertia that is smaller than the classical value R I(T)=I classical [1-f s (T)] f s (T) is the supersolid fraction Its upper limit is estimated by different theorists to range from 10-6 to 0.4; Leggett: 10-4 Solid Helium
7 Torsional Oscillator Technique is ideal for the detection of superfluidity Torsion rod 3.5 cm Amp f Torsion cell f 0 Quality Factor Q= f 0 / f ~10 6 Detection Drive Stability in the period is ~0.1 ns Frequency resolution of 1 part in 10 7 Mass sensitivity of ~10-7 g τ 2π o I K = f~ 1kHz
8 Vycor Torsional oscillator studies of superfluid films τ = 2π I total = I cell + I helium film, o I K Δτ Above Tc the adsorbed normal liquid film behaves as solid and oscillates with the cell. In the superfluid phase, helium film decouples from oscillation. Hence I total and τ drops. Berthold,Bishop, Reppy, PRL 39,348(1977)

10 Solid 4 He at 62 bars in Vycor glass Period shifted by 4260ns due to mass loading of solid helium τ*=966,000ns
11 Supersolid response of helium in Vycor glass Period drops at 175mK appearance of non-classical rotational inertia (NCRI) size of period drop - τ ~17ns τ τ*=971,000ns

13 490nm Solid helium in porous gold f 0 =359Hz 27bar Total mass loading = 1625ns Measured decoupling, - τ o =13ns NCRIF = 0.8% (with tortuosity, 1.2% ) E. Kim & M.H.W. Chan, JLTP 138, 859 (2005).

15 Bulk solid helium in annulus f 0 =912Hz 51bar Total mass loading = 3012ns Measured decoupling, - τ o =41ns NCRIF = 1.4% E. Kim & M.H.W. Chan, Science 305, 1941 (2004)
16 Non-Classical Rotational Inertia Fraction ρ S /ρ v max NCRIF = total τ mass loading Total mass loading =3012ns at 51 bars
17 Irrotational Flow Superfluids exhibit potential (irrotational) flow For our exact dimensions, NCRIF in the blocked cell should be about 1% that of the annulus* NCRIF Open Annulus: 51bar, 4µm/s Blocked Annulus: 36bar, 3µm/s ψ = ψ e h φ = m Temperature [K] iφ v S *E. Mueller, private communication.
18 Solid 4 He at various pressures show similar temperature dependence, but the measured supersolid fraction shows scatter with no obvious pressure dependence NCRIF NCRIF NCRIF NCRIF
19 Pressure dependence of supersolid fraction NCRIF Blue data points were obtained by seeding the solid helium samples from the bottom of the annulus. What are the causes of the scatter in NCRIF?
20 Large number of experimental parameters. 1. Pressure 2. Oscillation speed He concentration 4. Sample geometry/ crystal quality
21 Strong and universal velocity dependence in all annular samples ω R Vortices are important v C ~ 10µm/s h v s dl = m h v s = 2π Rm =3.16µm/s for n=1 n n

23 Nonclassical rotational inertia results have been replicated in four other labs. The temperature dependence of NCRI is reproduced. However, the magnitude of NCRIF varies from 0.03% up to 20%(!!) It has been suggested that defects, vacancies, dislocation and grain boundaries in crystal are responsible for the observed NCRI and it has also been suggested the phenomena is due to superfluid film flowing along the grain boundaries.

34 High temperature tail of NCRI Transition broadened in BC samples (probably polycrystalline ) and by 3 He impurities Normalized NCRIF 1.0 BC ppb [1] 300 ppb 1 ppb CT or CP,, 300 ppb,,,,,,, 1 ppb Temperature [K]
35 Grain boundaries surely cannot be the sole mechanism. What then is the cause for variation in NCRI from cell to cell? Dislocation lines with density that ranges from 10 5 cm -2 to 10 9 cm -2 and in particular how the interaction of vortices and 3 He with dislocation lines are important.
36 Anderson s vortex liquid model Just a few details: - Free vortices (relative to time scale of oscillator = resonant period) can respond to motion of oscillator and screen supercurrents, reducing measured NCRIF -NCRI related to susceptibility of vortices: NCRIF largest when they are pinned - 3 He may attach to vortices and slow them down (higher T O ) -Dissipation peak: vortex rate of motion ~ oscillator frequency (higher frequency, higher T O ) P.W. Anderson, Nature Phys. 3, 160 (2007).
37 Frequency dependence -T O increases with frequency -Low temperature NCRIF unchanged ~150mK ~220mK Aoki, Graves & Kojima, PRL 99, (2007).
38 Heat capacity Is there a thermodynamic signature of the transition? Is NCRI due to a glassy phase or glassy regions in solid helium?
